[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1420184, member: 10291"] Being a couple year old thread, I have since spent time working on my 22LR as a viable trainer for LR practice, and 22LR PRS competition. As a result, my current rifle/load is capable of consistent first round hits of .5-2 MOA hits from 10-350 yards (given a solid wind read). This is the maximum range I have tested this set-up. My rifle is a Savage 22LR TR with the factory stock replaced with an MDT Chassis, and a Rifle Basix trigger set at 1.5#, replacing the factory Accu-Trigger. For optics, this rifle shares a Vortex 6x24x50 AMG/ EBR-7, Mil reticle(borrowed from one of my center fire PRS rifles), mounted on a 20 MOA base. My load is Federal Gold Medal HV Match, chronographed at 1170FPS/SD6, G1 BC .128. Programming this info into my G7 and Sig 2400 RF’s, the ballistic outputs for elevation and wind are right on out to 350 yards(the maximum range for my clubs rimfire PRS matches). Overall, I’m happy with results of this set-up proving its viability when I ranged and made first shot kill on a crow at 247 yards. My zero was set 100 yards. Outputs: elevation:7.8Mil, 5mph-2o’clock windage:1Mil. With the high dope values used, I like a Mil based scope/reticle for LR 22 rimfire. .
